The field for the Madden 25 cover vote contest has narrowed from 64 to 4 and Arian Foster is still very much in the running.

The Texans tail back will meet Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson in the New School bracket finals. The New School bracket champ will face the winner of the Old School bracket, which features a Hall of Fame finals matchup of Jerry Rice vs. Barry Sanders.

The cover athlete for the 25th edition of the popular video game will be announced April 25.
